Abstract: This action would update and revise part 61, Certification: Pilots and Flight Instructors; part 141, Pilot Schools; and part 143, Ground Instructors. In order to be more compatible with the current operating environment and evolving demands of the national airspace system, this action would update training, certification, and recency-of-experience requirements.
